This novel is much better than most other "courting death" type cultivation novels. but still, comparing it with other best works in literature or cinema, it's just average 6/10.the cheat of mc is too overpowered and unbelievable. Still, the story maintains interest of reader as mc has to grow up from being very weak. most time, mc remains smart, but mc wastes his limited number of realistic simulations a lot, although that is needed by plot to keep his resources in check. Similarly, 250 episodes later, to help the senior sealed sword, he took really big risks, which were not needed. he could have slowly developed. Other characters are alright, nothing great.
